Lexi Lilly (born Lilian Hunting) was a pop singer who came to fame like a shooting star late last decade. She is most well-known for her second album, ‘Everything You Were to Me’.

Who is Lux Lilly?

Born in Oasis Springs in 2062, Lexi Lilly made her debut in 2080 as the vocalist of the one hit wonder band ‘Rose Hose’. After her unexpected win in ‘99 Voices 2081’, she made her solo debut the following year with her album ‘Debunking My Myths’. The title song ‘Dandelion’ made its way to the top of the charts, marking the beginning of her ongoing three year reign as one of the world’s top pop divas.

Stabbing

Lexi Lilly was walking home one night in her gated neighbourhood in Del Sol Valley when she was attacked with a knife by a person in a dark navy hoodie. There were no witnesses on the scene, but the attack was caught on video by a nearby surveillance camera. The assailant’s face, unfortunately, could not be seen. The attack may prove fatal to the pop star, as she remains unconscious from her wounds.

A Lexi Lilly Documentary

Following the incident, Skybiscuit have announced that they will be producing a feature length documentary film on the tragic life of the diva, directed by the rising star Arron-James Calvert. The film will include interviews with her friends, family and coworkers…

“It’s like they’ve all but written her off. All they need is an R.I.P. at the end.”

“What do you expect? They’re essentially a tabloid.”

“You might want to put that away, guys. She’s here.”

“Well, how can we help you tonight… Miss Hunting?”
